I have chronic back pain so I can somewhat relate, although his, sounds like mine on steroids. The suckiness just gets worse when you add in the "no lifting children for months" part, though. I'm feelin' ya. Hope there is a quick recovery and good outcome. Oh wow…I’m so sorry to hear that. I have chronic back pain so I can somewhat relate, although his, sounds like mine on steroids.

My knee surgery was pretty miserable, and that was only about a month of on-crutches time. I hope you and he both come through it OK. Oh, goodness, how rotten for you both.

I may be stuck way over here in hell...I mean Texas...but I know my way around the UPS shipping site. Games, books, music, cookies...you name it we're happy to share. Speaking from very recent experience, if B is able to use an egg crate mattress pad, you are going to want to open it up now and stash it in an unused room to air out for about a week. The outgassing from them is horrific, but they make a huge difference when you are stuck in bed for any length of time. You’ll let me know if there’s anything you need, right?

Poor you! Poor F & J ("Daddy up, Daddy up!"). I imagine it is going to be really challenging for everyone involved. It sounds as though you have an amazing support system at least, and perhaps in 9 months it will all seem worth it. And every cloud has a silver lining, or, in this case, white trim (I know, I know, I seriously couldn't help myself). Poor Brian! Poor you! Poor F & J (”Daddy up, Daddy up!”).
